Japanese Offices in China, 1880 (June) envelope to New Hampshire, U.S.A. showing very fine complete "Imperial Japanese Postal Agency/China/Foochow" double-ring origin h.s. in violet, bearing Japan Koban 5s. cancelled by "crossroads" h.s. with matching "I.J. Postal Agency/Shanghai" double-ring d.s. and Yokohama transit c.d.s. (9.7) alongside, and "San Francisco/Paid All" c.d.s. (26.7) in magenta on reverse, reduced a little at left on opening (not affecting the Foochow h.s. or any other marks), an attractive example of this extremely rare and important mark.
Estimate HK$ 20,000 - 25,000

At this time, the only Japanese Agency - besides Shanghai - that had its own canceller was Foochow. Mail from China in this period handled solely through the Japanese Post Office (other than originating in Shanghai) is likewise extremely rare.

Realized HK$ 90,000
